Weather station in Antarctica records high of 65, the continent's hottest temperature ever

What are these dire consequences. You can literally research failed climate change predictions, the kind that deal with the consequences rather than the temperatures, and see all the misses.

Still waiting on my 50 million climate refugees.

 

??? Say wha???

 

It's not like the US historically has done nothing. We passed the Clean Powers Act of 1975, and to the best of my memory that dealt with once very harmful chemicals that were in air conditioners and the such. The smog that comes from cars/factories is probably the biggest thing we can address. That brings us to the somehow incredible difficulty of a high speed rail system here in the US.

Rail has went into an almost century-long decline with the advent of the car, and we do have some pretty fast trains but what made high speed rail so convenient was the ability to transition from town to town in a very short amount of time. To me, the biggest reason for the failure in California, is that there's no way a local budget can fund that operation(as we've seen.)

And funding it...just for California defeats the purpose. It needs to be a national rail, that can connect all of the mainland US States(Since Alaska/Hawaii aren't geographically connected lol.)

Democrats like to rail on coal(even as we use less of it) for some reason. But there's a problem: Fireplaces and Winter. Coal predominately has its uses to keep our homes warm. I think it'll continue to be a hard sell to get people to freeze in winter, for the good of the planet.

But I think car/factory smog is the biggest thing we can take on. But while taking that on, as others have pointed out: China and India have to have their stake in the game too. It's ridiculous for the US/EU to make commitments, while Southeast Asia continues to pollute excessively.

 

I'm no "climate change denier". Our current climate event started 20,000 years ago. More people might take you seriously if you presented a solution to this "science" problem that didn't involve American finances.

 

Started 20,000 years ago? No.

After the end of the last ice age, the CO2 concentration took approximately 7500 years to go up by 80 points.

From 1900 to 2000, the CO2 concentration rose 80 points.

That is a 75x faster rate.

More people would take the science seriously if they realized that they have an innate unwillingness to accept conclusions simply because they do not like the policy ramifications.

 

The Earth was covered in ice 20,000 years ago.

Then one day it started getting warmer. 20,000 years ago.

The warming trend is still ongoing, 20,000 years later.

That, is climate change.

You want $10 from me to do what again?

 

Hottest humans have ever recorded is not the hottest ever.

Try being honest about your lack of data.

And you still haven't proven you know what the primary cause of climate change is nor have you proven that humans are the primary cause of it.

Until then you've got nothing.

 

Financial solutions to a science problem, that's what you are pushing.

So how much of my money is going to solve your problem this time?

And to whom should I send it?

 

Well of course that has to be false because flat earthers don't have human recorded temperatures back then!

LOL These guys are just like the Christian fundamentalists who believe the earth is 7,000 years old.

Flat earth climate change nutballs think temperature readings didn't exist before humans started recording them.

 

The warming trend - as I just detailed for you - is accelerating because of humans.

 

I have 100% of the actively publishing climatologists who espouse a point of view about the cause of global warming and the fact that they say it is humans.

What you got? Nothing.

 

Your money is not needed or required.

Your acceptance of the science and a willingness to vote in Politicians who recognize the risk and will take legitimate steps to address the problem without threatening the economic or ecological conditions in any significant way is needed.

 

Yet you just can't bring yourself to answer the basic questions of how much of my money do you need and where to send it.

Mmm-Hmm. Not surprised.

 

FYI, it is already happening.

Oh you mean like the Paris Accord?

 

The hottest ever recorded is an implied aspect of the title, but you die on that mole hill if you feel like you must.

 

Yes, the Paris Accord is a great step in the right direction.

 

I actually did in post #64.

The answer is none of your money.

 

I voted for Trump for 3 reasons. Getting us out of the Paris Accord was one of them.

Pound Sand.

 

Good. Instead of typing on a keyboard, you should be out preparing for the inevitable doom on the horizon while the rest of us carry on as normal as the Earth goes through its normal patterns of weather. And thank your lucky stars you weren't around when dinosaurs were running nuclear power plants and causing the Earth's global means temp to rise 26°C past what it is now.

 

We are still in the Paris Accord.

How much money has it cost you?

 

You'll have to wait millions of more years to see an all-time high.

 

Do explain.

 

Have a source for this?
